From the Principal's Desk

Dr. Atashi Karpha

As you venture out into the world of higher education in liberal arts, let me introduce you to Gokhale Memorial Girls' College, a premier educational institution exclusively for women.

Located in the heart of the Kolkata city, the College offers a stimulating ambience for learning and caters to students from all over the city and its suburbs, irrespective of their socio-economic status. The College is affiliated to the University of Calcutta and aided by the University Grants Commission, New Delhi.

While the college provides a sound holistic education for its students, it continues to instill good moral values in them, empowering them to cope with the challenges of modern society and to become mature and responsible citizens. Since its inception in 1938, Gokhale Memorial Girls' College has forged ahead in the academic sphere with both its teachers and its
students remaining true to the guiding motto, "What shall I do with that which does not give me immortality?"

Highly motivated and qualified faculty members constantly seek to enhance the teaching-learning process. Co-curricular activities complement the curriculum and help the students develop their inner talents and creativity. Intra-college competitions, sports and tournaments, cultural activities, literary activities, observances and
social outreach activities provide a stimulating
environment for all-round development of the
students. They are encouraged to participate in
seminars, workshops, exhibitions and educational
tours.

In this college, we constantly embrace changes
in order to keep pace with technological
advancements that the present world is going
through while retaining our core values. Several
modern facilities are offered to help the
student lead a comfortable and enjoyable
'college life'. A clean and fresh college
premises is an essential feature that motivates
students in developing good habits. The entire
staff maintains a cordial relationship with the
students. The College runs smoothly under the
guidance of the Governing Body, independent of
interference from any quarter.

It is with pride and pleasure that I state that,
over the years there has been a continuous
enhancement in the performance of students in
the University examinations. Every year we have
students topping the list of candidates in a
subject or the other. I congratulate them all
and wish them success in their future endeavors.

I also convey my best wishes to the new entrants
and all senior students and urge them to uphold
the code of conduct and the rules of discipline
laid down in the College Prospectus and put up a
good academic performance through hard-work. It
is my sincere wish that they spend the most
memorable years of their lives in this College.

On occasion of our Platinum Jubilee Celebration,
I convey my sincere thanks to all the patrons,
the faculty and staff, the members of the
Governing Body, the students and the guardians
for their whole-hearted support that has
transformed this College into an esteemed
institution.
